I see that Lapua has introduced a new solid bullet called the TRX. Perhaps this is another competitor for the Barnes TTSX, et al. They make a 120 grain in 6.5mm and I think I'm going to load some in my 6.5x47 as I plan my antelope and deer load for next year.
If anyone has had any luck with it yet, please share your experience.
 
They look pretty average to me. Worse bc than a Barnes LRX with similar expansion. Only good thing I saw was that they show realistic expansion at various velocities.
 
They are about 5-7 thousandths longer than a Sierra 130 TMK. The heel sits below the case neck/shoulder junction, at least in my 6.5x47. The Sierra heel does not.
